The Community Breeds Negativity and Creates It.

When the community begins to advocate for total strangers to attack people and gang up on them for no reason, there is a problem with this community. In game I don't say or do anything but play the game. When someone is feeding and being toxic and then gets his two other teammates to flame us in all chat, it shouldn't be like this. Riot Game Developers are seriously not addressing this as much as they are. They are breeding negativity and toxicity.

So, you explained the community has a toxicity problem, I think you'd find many people agree with that. What exactly are the devs doing that breeds this though? That was never clarified...

What else is gonna breed and create toxicity, other than people? Like... just seems like youre just stating the very obvious. You know what else the community does? Hates toxicity. Its a whole spectrum gasp! Who would've thought? Millions of people with differing opinions and personalities. The reality of human nature. Now do you have anything constructive? Like how Riot could stop "breeding negativity" or whatever that means?

Your problem exists in human society as a whole, and has flared to extreme levels over the past 3 years. So it's not like this is a condition that's exclusive to the game. Additionally, Riot has pretty good systems in place already. So unless you want them to have Blizzard levels of online censorship, they're doing good with what they have. No system EVER is going to catch everything. People will always break the rules. So it's unrealistic to expect Riot to catch every offense to sugarcoat the game for you. If people are being dicks, mute them. Report them after the game, and stop dwelling on it.

It seems like you are ignoring the vast majority of this board full of people complaining about toxicity restrictions /bans. Likewise, only a small portion of people that receive such punishments ever make a thread.

This community as a whole deserves to be launched into the sun. Everyone thinks they "the best player ever". everyone is more concerned with touting how "superior" they are to thier teammates. Let me see. I Have been told "its a team game" but when I ask for help from jungle while last hit "its not my job to come to your rescue"

This community is more interested in thier "KDA PISSING CONTEST" than actually winning. Who has more kills than who. Who can get the most kills in 30 minutes while completely ignoring towers you get the 1 or 2 players who feel it is thier sole duty to decide your intentions FOR YOU. YOu get 1v4 ambushed, and they decree "reported for inting" This whole community is so wrapped up in themselves the level of narcissism is physically nauseating. The smug, arrogant, self-centered "Im better than u" cloud of Bullshit this community seems to huff. and When people try and bring attention to it to try and fix it? What happens. They get deleted, downvoted, dismissed, or stat-whored (I checked ur stats, they arent good enough. You didnt meet >insert insane quota here<")

They will tell you "chill out its just a game" when you want to take towers or do something that actually wants to WIN. But the moment THEY lose, they blame you and treat it like its the LCS world finals. This community will flipflop between "its a team game" and "I dont have to help the team" when its convenient for THEM, (hense why I have decided to stop treating it like a "Team" game)

I have truly given up on this community as a whole. Why does such a good game have to have such a worthless community, so wrapped up in themselves and how good they look solo. Oh well, if they lose, at least its not my fault. Because..its just a game.
